Previously on Pichi Pichi Voice Live Start: Yu-Gi-Oh! Style:

I'm glad she didn't start trying to kill me again. I hope she'll try and trust me now. Maybe a memory will help. The man thought as the ring began shaking and glowing again. After a few seconds it stopped and a beam of light hit Karen in the forehead.

Chapter 10

Karen opened her eyes to notice she wasn't in the ocean anymore and that she was in human form. She looked around to see she was in a burning village, people screaming, and soldiers on horses killing animals, men, women and children. Her eyes widened in horror as she tried to defend one of the children only to go right through them.

What's happening? Where am I? And where did that guy go? Karen thought as she witnessed the blood and flames. She saw a family being corned against the wall of a building, two soldiers with swords at them. The mother had dark hair and eyes and there was a little boy with sandy blonde hair and brown eyes, both dressed in rags. The boy looked no older than eight and the woman looked to be around in her thirties.

"Please leave us alone. We haven't done anything wrong." The woman said, standing in front of the boy.

"Silence woman. We have strict orders from the Pharaoh that this village to be slaughtered."

"Please leave my son alone. I beg of you." The woman pleaded, only for the soldiers to thrust his sword into the woman's chest, pulling out the blood. Karen and the young child watched in horror as they then headed towards him, swords bloody. The boy didn't move, still frozen with fear and shock.

"Run. Run kid!" Karen yelled, but realized they couldn't hear her.

The soldiers moved closer but another soldier yelled, "There's a big lot down there. Leave the boy for later." The two soldiers then followed the other soldier leaving the boy.

"Mama… mama wake up." The boy said, shaking the body.

"Please… my son. Run… get away from here."

"Whoever did this will pay."

"The Pharaoh is not good my son… run… escape the fate I have. Leave now… Bakura." The woman said, those being the last words she ever spoke.

The boy had tears in his eyes and then ran, not knowing where he was going. Karen followed him until he fell into a river. He started splashing around until he went under. Karen tried to dive in but it wouldn't allow her to. In the water she saw a young purple mermaid, similar to her when she was younger, swim to the boy and surfaced with him.

Who is she and what is she doing in a river? Karen wondered, but noticed the locket around the young mermaid's neck was the same one she had around hers.

Karen opened her eyes to see that she was back in the present, in mermaid form and that the man still held her. "What was that?"

"That was a memory from Ancient Egypt. You see, I have a spirit who resides in this ring and he is searching for what happened to his lover."

"The mermaid…"

"Yes. She was a mermaid princess and the spirit's lover. Supposedly related to you."

"But how did I-"

"The spirit only showed you one of his memories, so that's why you couldn't do anything."

"And the mermaid?"

"She saved him from drowning and that is all that is known to him about her. After a fight with the Pharaoh over what you saw, he lost his memories of her and never saw her again."

"That mermaid… she looked like me. She had the locket I have now." Karen whispered, touching her locket.

Seira swam in a river after she lost Izuru when she teleported. Going through the river would take less time if she ran to the ocean.

Mokuba… I lost you once for five years… I will not allow Izuru to get away with this. Seira thought angrily as she swam. Suddenly she remembered Mokuba still had her pearl.

How will I be able to stop her if Mokuba has my pearl. If he can throw it to me… maybe. But still… how is Izuru alive? And what does she want with the tablet?

"So you have come, mermaid princess." Seira looked up and saw Izuru, surrounded by a water cyclone, holding an unconscious Mokuba to her. Beside her was the dragon with the tablet.

"Mokuba! Let him go!"

"I don't think so. I came for the tablet, but finding a mermaid princess and her pearl is like killing two birds with one stone!" Izuru said as she summoned more dragons to attack Seira.

Noel tried to find Ryou or Karen when her locket started to glow. Trouble. She thought as she ran to the ocean and dove in.

Karen was about to ask the boy his name when her pearl became to glow. "I have to go."

"It's alright. Just promise me that's you'll come here again. In your human form." He asked, holding her hand.

"Just tell me your name."

"Bakura. Yours?"

"Karen." She replied as she dove into the water.

Seira was hit by several of the dragons, trying to hold on. By that time, Mokuba started coming around and saw her. His eyes widened. An image of Seira when they first met appeared then was replaced with the Seira now.

It's her. She's back. He thought, the pearl in his hand glowing. Mokuba looked at it and threw it to her. "Take it!" he said, not noticing or caring that he wasn't struggling for air as he spoke. Izuru then tried to get the pearl back.

"No!" Izuru said as the pearl headed for Seira.

"Orange Pearl Voice!" Seira said as she transformed.

"Ha. One mermaid princess won't hurt me." Izuru taunted.

"Purple Pearl Voice!"

"Aiiro Pearl Voice!"

Seira looked behind her and saw Karen and Noel beside her.

"Attack now!"

"Pichi Pichi Voice Live Start!" the three mermaid princesses said as they began.

Dareka no koe ni namaewo yobarete me wo samasu

Aoi nami ni ukabu umi no yurikago de

Yume wo miteta no

Izuru's monsters dissolved as the singing went on, Izuru clutching her chest in pain. Mokuba looked up, smiling as he saw Seira singing.

That song… that was the song she sang when we first met.

Kono umi no dokoka de ima arasou koe ga suru

Naiteru kokoro kara ai wa umarenai

Kanashimi dake ga afurete shimau

Utsukushii umi no negai no kakera kara

Umarete yukitai hikari wo daite

Yuuyake ni somaru ORENJI no umi ni wa

Sekai no namida ga nemutteru

"Love shower pitch!" Seira, Noel and Karen said as Izuru then let go of Mokuba. The tablet sunk to the floor and stayed there. "How about an encore?"

"No encore. I'll be back!" Izuru swore as she disappeared. Mokuba became unconscious and sunk as well.

Seira swam towards him held him and told the other two, "Bring the tablet to land. The others will explain."

"What about Mokuba?"

"I'll bring him back." Seira said as she swam off with Mokuba.

Bakura watched as Karen swam off. Then Ryou in spirit form appeared.

"What was that all about?"

"Listen, I know you have a crush on Karen's sister, Noel."

"What? No I don't." Ryou protested, blushing as Bakura smirked.

"Yes you do. I've lived with you for how many years? Two years?"

"Actually, it's three and two months."

"Whatever. The point is, I know very well about you and I can tell you like her. A lot."

"Was it obvious to her?"

"No."

"Good."

"But she likes you back."

"Oh Kami."

"Mokuba. Please wake up." Seira said as she began shaking him. She already brought him to the surface and he hadn't woken up yet. He then began slowly opening his eyes and looked up at Seira. "Mokuba!"

"It's… it's you. You saved me again." Mokuba said as he sat up. Seira shook her head.

"No. It was all thanks to you that we're alive." Seira said as tears fell. Mokuba grinned.

"You were crying that time too." Mokuba commented.

"At last… we get to meet each other again." Seira said as she hugged him. Mokuba looked up at her before resting his head on her chest.

In the distance, Hippo, Kaito, Masahiro, Nagisa, Sara, Lucia, Coco, Rina and Hanon watched the pair.

"It's beautiful." Coco commented.

"It's our story." Lucia added.

"It's love." Hanon pointed out.

"It's like history repeated itself." Rina remarked.

"It's dangerous." The others looked at Sara when she said that. "Even though you have already experienced your mermaid-human relationship, Seira is in danger as are we. Izuru is alive and she stole the tablet. That means someone awakened her to find out more about this tablet."

"So where's the tablet?"

"It's right here." They looked behind them to see Karen and Noel carrying it.

"How did you-"

"Izuru attacked Seira and we went to help." Noel answered.

"She told us to bring the tablet here." Karen added.

"It's a good thing Izuru didn't get the tablet. Who knows what powers and secrets it might hold." Sara said. She glanced down at Seira and Mokuba and sighed.

Please Aqua Regina-sama… if you are forgiving enough to protect young love; please forgive my sins, if that is the reason why you brought me here. I only wish that my family is safe and not cursed as I am.

"Sara? Are you alright?" Lucia asked, snapping the older woman out of her thought.

"I'm fine. I'm just worried."

Izuru kneeled down in front of a shadowed person. She was back in her demon form, complete with a dark fin. The person appeared to be a man, having on leg crossed over the other, wearing dark pants and an open shirt.

"Why do you return empty handed, Izuru? Surely the tablet must have been easy to get yet it is not here."

"Gomen Gaito-sama. It's the mermaid princesses' fault I failed."

"Oh? The pink, green and mizuro mermaids giving you problems?"

"No. It was the purple, aiiro and orange's fault."

"Nani? The orange mermaid?"

"Gaito-sama, I don't think it was Sara. She appeared much younger and her song was much different from Sara's song."

"How is that possible? After Sara died there should have been no heir for the Indian Ocean. She had her pearl… didn't she?"

"I don't think so. You see there was this boy that tried to stop me. He had the orange pearl and gave it to the mermaid."

Before they could continue, a man appeared and asked, "She failed, didn't she? Bakura-sama is not going to be pleased." This person had a dark maroon hew hair with loose bangs, pulled into a pony-tail at the back and wore a white, low-collared dress shirt, a navy blue mini-skirt, complete with a red belt. The person also had navy blue knee-high boots, and out of his back sprouted dark purple bat wings.

"No asked you, Lady Bat." Izuru snapped back.

"I'm just doing reports for Bakura-sama." Lady Bat replied.

"Just because you're a higher rank doesn't mean you have the right to mock me. You too have failed to bring mermaid princesses to your old master."

"Hmph." Lady Bat scoffed.

"Lady Bat, would you kindly tell Bakura that even though Izuru failed to bring the tablet? That she found out that there is a new orange mermaid princess?" Gaito asked, not calling Bakura "sama".

"You know Bakura-sama dislikes it when you call him that." Lady Bat said as he disappeared in a cluster of bats.

"Izuru, fetch Yuri and tell her to come to me."

"Hai Gaito-sama." Izuru said as she disappeared. Then a young girl with lime green hair and green cat eyes appeared. She was dressed in a dark red dress and had a ruffled headband over her head.

"You called Gaito-sama?"

"Yuri, go to Domino City. Find anyone that looks like Sara and report back to me."

"Hai."

"Actually, if you come across that boy Hippo, go to him. Tell him that I want to meet with him and bring him to me. Tell him that I don't want to harm him or try to find the mermaid princesses, but to talk."

"But Gaito-sama…"

"I know you love the boy." Yuri felt her face heat up but Gaito continued. "That is why he will listen to you. If he does want to meet with me, tell him that I will meet him at bay."

"Hai." Yuri said as she disappeared. Gaito then got up from his seat and walked towards the open windows of the underwater palace they were in.

"Sara… where are you?" he whispered.

"Is there anything you need us to do?" he turned around to see two teenagers around Seira's age.

The boy had messy orange hair, dark red eyes, and wore a black shirt and pants. The girl had long black hair, dark red eyes, and wore a black strapless dress that reached up to her knees, black drop earrings and black chocker.

"Not yet. But I will summon you when I need you two."

"Hai." The girl said, walking away. The boy stayed where he was and Gaito raised an eyebrow.

"Is something the matter?"

"I wish to go to the surface. I have an idea that will attract the mermaid princesses and allow us to capture them."

"Oh? And what might that be?"

"There is a surfing contest tomorrow; all the surfers in Domino will be there. If the mermaid princesses are in Domino, then they will surely be there to watch. Then I will put my plan to action, allowing the mermaids to fall into my trap."

"I cannot allow you to. Bakura only wants to send one at a time and I have Yuri going already."

"He won't know. After all, didn't you say I look like your brother? I could pose as him and he won't know the difference."

"It's too dangerous. I won't let you go."

"How can you keep me and Aries here when you know we can try and bring them in?"

"Because you are my son and I won't allow you to go where you will get hurt!" Gaito snapped back. "Now, go back to your sister."

The boy glared before turning his back and said, "Hai… father."

"Good… Kaito."

dun, dun, dun, dun. Cliffies. When did Gaito have kids? Why does Sara think she's cursed? What does Gaito want to talk about with Hippo? Will Seira and Mokuba's love last? Will his brother find out?
